Thank you, Deb, for a great day’s outing to Darwin! We thoroughly enjoyed all of our activities, and really appreciate how well you accommodated my husband’s limited mobility. We especially enjoyed also the local color and culture you added to all of our conversations. Thank you again!

Deb Frosh was extremely knowledgeable and very informative! She even took me to a near-by river and arranged for a 2hr tour to see native birds and animals. She also took me to a great steak restaurant which was a fabulous way to conclude the tour! I would highly recommend her tour service to anyone looking for a tour guide in the Darwin area.
